GOP senator doesn't want to 'wear a face mask in the shower'

If you get an email from a weird uncle who watches Fox all day, claiming that "Pelosi wants to force everyone to wear masks in the shower," you'll know why

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) unveiled an ambitious economic aid package yesterday, which Senate Republicans quickly condemned. The partisan reaction wasn't exactly a surprise.
What was unexpected was the way in which some GOP lawmakers expressed their concerns. Take Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.), for example, who appeared on Fox News and made this case:
"Her bill would turn over all of our public safety decisions, or most of them, to [the Occupational Safety and Health Administration] -- which will probably, promptly, require all of us to abide by OSHA rules. I don't want to have to wear a face mask in the shower. That's the sort of stuff that OSHA promulgates every day."
Does the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which exists to help protect Americans in the workplace, regulate what people wear in their own showers in the own homes? Of course not -- and it's not the sort of "stuff that OSHA promulgates every day."

he has ever met. He plays stupid to distract from his true, quite sophisticated RW agenda machinations.
Remember how her shredded Matthew Petersen (and enraged the Rump by doing it, as Peterson immediately withdrew himself after Kennedy roasted him on national telly), that dolt whom Trump put up for the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia?
At the very end, Kennedy slips up, and out of character, and has a big old mean shit eating grin on his face, as he instantly knows he just destroyed this bloke's career trajectory in 5 minutes. He is a shark playing a hillbilly persona.

well. He could play the wink and a nod whitey powers character, and a bumbling, aw shucks rube to deflect, BUT never would make the same mistakes Rump does, and behind the scenes would be horridly ruthless. The MAGAts would eat it up. 
Ruthless, very intelligent is a twisted way, tall, 6 ft 5 in (1.96 m), imposing, military vet, psycho xian fundie dominionist, white nationalist, rabid corporatist, HUGE hawk, hates Iran, wants war, only 43. He punks Trump.

While in high school, Cotton developed an intense desire to attend Harvard College, and worked intently on his studies toward that goal. He was accepted to Harvard after graduating from high school in 1995, and majored in government. At Harvard, Cotton was a member of the editorial board of The Harvard Crimson, often dissenting from the liberal majority. In articles, Cotton addressed what he saw as "sacred cows" such as affirmative action. He graduated with an A.B. magna cum laude in 1998 after only three years of study, having written his senior thesis on The Federalist Papers.
After graduating from Harvard, Cotton was accepted into a master's degree program at Claremont Graduate University. He left in 1999, saying that he found academic life "too sedentary", and instead enrolled at Harvard Law School. Cotton graduated from Harvard Law School with a J.D. degree in 2002.
